Latest takes
“Lamb is a pick I don’t exactly love in a vacuum. I am lower on him than most this season and don’t believe he should be a first-round pick in fantasy.”
Samwise· Aug 16“Lamb remains a locked-in WR1 with a stellar quarterback in his prime and George Pickens alongside him to keep defenses honest.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 14“CeeDee Lamb had a “down” year last season as the WR11 in fantasy points per game, but that finish doesn’t really tell the entire story of Lamb’s season. In Week 3, he played only seven snaps, and in Week 18, he played only 45.5% of the snaps.”

“CeeDee Lamb | WR, Dallas Cowboys Still within his prime years, you may be surprised to see CeeDee Lamb listed here.”
Kyle Lesti· Aug 11“CeeDee Lamb (WR – DAL) In a world where George Pickens had hit the open market, or was traded by the Cowboys this offseason, instead of signing his franchise tag tender, CeeDee Lamb could have been back in the top two wide receiver conversation.”
Tom Strachan· Aug 11“He has a solid offensive line in front of him and perhaps the best WR tandem in the league in CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens .”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“This is a basic one you’ve probably already heard of before. Take CeeDee Lamb and name your team after the popular movie starring legendary actor Anthony Hopkins.”
Frank Ammirante· Aug 4“20 come from two buckets: Hyper-specified role players (Stefon Diggs, Rashee Rice) Guys with other top 24 or strong ancillary target competition (Both Rams WRs, Jameson Williams, CeeDee Lamb, Tee Higgins, Quentin Johnston with Ladd McConkey/Keenan Allen) You may notice there’s one guy on this list who fits in neither, and it’s Thundering Herd legend Christian Watson (shout out to NDSU).”
Tony Martin· Jul 30“The Cowboys made no meaningful additions at RB this offseason and are running it back with Dak Prescott , CeeDee Lamb , and George Pickens .”
Jordan Pullett· Jul 29“If you’re happy to believe 2025 was a blip rather than the new normal, it becomes easier to see Lamb as a value pick in this range. Betting on Lamb’s well-established connection with Dak Prescott and this team as a whole to bounce back isn’t the worst bet in the world.”
Tom Strachan· Jul 27“CeeDee Lamb is eminently talented, do not get me wrong there, and this offense will promise to be extremely high-flying and productive. However, he has one season in his career wherein he finished higher than WR7 or with more than 17.7 PPR points per game. That season came in 2023 when he led the NFL in targets with 181 targets.”
Jeff Krisko· Jul 26“CeeDee Lamb (WR – DAL) It was a really disappointing 2025 for CeeDee Lamb , posting the second-lowest numbers of his career in targets (117), receptions (75) and receiving yards (1,077), with only his rookie season in 2020 worse.”
Tom Strachan· Jul 25“Malik Nabers, CeeDee Lamb, and Justin Jefferson all have similar LTV scores in the same range as Love’s.”
Jonathan Lange· Jul 21“Lamb posted the second-lowest numbers of his career in targets, receptions and yards, with only his rookie season in 2020 worse. He also had a career-low three touchdowns. Pickens saw a 22.1% target share in the red zone compared to Lamb's 18.6%, which was also behind Jake Ferguson, who led the team with a 23.1% red-zone target share.”
Tom Strachan· Jul 12“Lamb is coming off the least productive season of his career. There's no questioning his talent, but I'm still unsure how he'll fit into Dallas' new offensive scheme. That said, he'll still command an elite target share, and that's ultimately why we're drafting him. Lamb's combination of volume, explosiveness and big-play ability gives him overall WR1 upside if everything clicks.”
Kurt Blakeway· Jul 7
“I opted to go with Ashton Jeanty at the end of the first round. In hindsight, I may have done this slightly differently, opting for Brock Bowers as the piece of this Raiders offense.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 15“Ashton Jeanty (RB – LV) Going as the RB6, 10th overall, our analysts are genuinely split here. The projections point to a real season, but one that lands closer to a backend RB1 finish in the RB10 to 12 range rather than a true top-six overall running back. One analyst believes the jump required from last year’s disappointing rookie output to a true top-six finish is larger than the modest per-game increase the projections themselves show, driven mostly by added rushing volume rather than a big receiving-game jump.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 8“There is plenty of hope that the Raiders offense will be able to take a big step forward this season with a complete overhaul of their coaching staff after being the worst team in the league in 2025. Even with a bad offense, Jeanty was still productive for fantasy rosters, though he could not return his high draft price.”

“I was not burned on Ashton Jeanty last season as BEAST DOME ranked him lower than any site last season, but he was so awful last year I could not imagine spending a 1st or 2nd Round pick on a guy who played like an RB3 at best in 2025.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 7“I nearly clicked Zay Flowers with my second pick, and probably should have because he is in line for a huge 2026, but I instead grabbed my first running back in Ashton Jeanty, who should benefit from an upgraded offensive line and an offense-minded head coach in Klint Kubiak.”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 7“Ashton Jeanty (RB – LV) I could not have been more hyped for Ashton Jeanty heading into the 2025 season”
Ryan Kirksey· Aug 6“With Klint Kubiak in town, Fernando Mendoza or Kirk Cousins at the helm, a healthy Brock Bowers , and improved blocking up front, Jeanty could be poised to post a strong RB1 season in his second season.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 28“Ashton Jeanty had 100% of the backfield rushes from inside of the 5-yard line as a rookie, but he only had 9 rushes from that area of the field.”
Rich Hribar· Jul 24“Ashton Jeanty will be seen as a disappointment for fantasy managers exiting his rookie season. It wasn’t a failure, but you can make the argument that, because of his talent and the hype, it didn’t live up to lofty expectations. Jeanty was the RB15 in fantasy points per game, finishing with 321 touches and 1,321 total yards.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 22“Ashton Jeanty is entering his sophomore season with an improved situation. First and foremost, the Raiders hired Klint Kubiak as head coach, giving them one of the best play-callers in the NFL.”
Frank Ammirante· Jul 17“Last season, Jeanty was fifth in snap share at running back and first in backfield opportunity shares. If this usage continues, all we need is for the offense to take a step forward to have a huge season.”
Ellis Johnson· Jul 17“He now has a new head coach in Klint Kubiak, one of the rising offensive minds in the NFL. More importantly, the Raiders also bolstered the offensive line by adding All-Pro Tyler Linderbaum (BAL). If Jeanty was able to produce average numbers in a dysfunctional offense, he should be capable of producing above-average numbers in a functional one.”
Jonathan Lange· Jul 10“Ashton Jeanty may be the player I'm most excited to see on the field again. Jeanty was a can't-miss prospect who had a tumultuous first season. Despite the circumstances, Jeanty still finished as a high-end RB2, averaging 14 FPPG.”
Jonathan Lange· Jul 10“Ashton Jeanty will be seen as a disappointment for fantasy managers exiting his rookie season. The ecosystem surrounding Jeanty stunk. The Raiders were 31st in red zone scoring attempts per game and 30th in yards per play.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 9“Last season, Ashton Jeanty eventually finished as the RB12, but he started slowly and, after the first three weeks, was the RB33.”
Colt Williams· Jul 1
